Whoa. This movie is going to be a big one. The trailer is pretty cool. The action looks well shot and there is a distinct style to it. I found myself absorbed in what I’ve seen so far. Then again, it should be expected. Ron Howard has pretty good taste when it comes to his directorial decisions. This is also a bio pic, those are typically decent if the right people are attached. Chris Hemsworth is a decent actor and I think this could be his big break out as a serious actor. He’s joined by Olivia Wilde, which is never a bad thing. The story is based on a Formula One rivalry from the 70s. I don’t know anything about that, but it seems interesting. If I have to learn about it from Opie, so be it.
